Bright house made of bricks and stones from the 17th and 18th centuries, turned towards nature whose decorations and furniture are largely inspired. Its sumptuous romantic park is the fruit of the work of the best landscapers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Classified as "Remarkable Garden", Courson's romantic English park is the result of the work of great landscapers such as Berthault and the Bühler brothers. Its 35 hectares, furrowed by long alleys winding around a pond, shelter a rich vegetation: flowering camellias, magnolias, lilacs and azaleas in the spring, hydrangeas and roses bloom in summer, or even flamboyant colors of the beeches, oaks and maples in autumn, will amaze you!
The castle, listed as a Historic Monument, perpetuates a certain French tradition of splendid and refined aristocratic residences, while affirming its personality of large residence in brick and "transparent" stone. Former residence of Lamoignon, it was built in the 17th century around an inner courtyard.
